CHOOSING A POWER SUPPLY There are two important parameters to consider when choosing a power supply in your application, voltage and current.
Motor Power Supply Voltage Input Range: 12 to 36 Vdc
Refer to your motor label for rated voltage. The integrated motor control is intended to be operated from a low voltage DC power supply rated between 12 to 36 Vdc. The maximum voltage of the GreenDriveTM is 42 Vdc, therefore do not exceed this voltage. The maximum continuous operating current handled by the GreenDriveTM is 10 amps. Where the maximum motor current is less than 10A, the power supply rating should be based on the rated motor current as shown on the nameplate. Filter capacitors are supplied internal to the GreenDriveTM control for increased reliability under typical power conditions. It is recommended that the power supply meet the latest editions of UL60950 and CSA 60950 specifications.
Current Input Range: 3x Rated Motor Current (Typical) The maximum or rated power supply current needed should typically be at least three times the rated motor current to ensure adequate current headroom for intermittent motor overloading.

Inputs/Outputs
Tachometer (Pin 1) Tachometer outputs are generated from an internal controller by the three hall effect sensors. On the standard Dynamo motor, the output is 15 pulses per revolution. The tachometer output provides speed information. At each commutation point, the tachometer output changes state independent of motor direction. The GreenDriveTM can be used in conjunction with the Direction output (Pin 6). See Table 2 for additional information.
Externally Supplied Voltage Command Input The user must supply a 0-4 Vdc input into Pin 2 on the control connector. If a 5 Vdc supply is to be used, a 22 K resistor must be placed in series with a 100 K. potentiometer. If a 4 Vdc supply is used, a resistor is not needed. The potentiometer consists of three pins, a supply voltage input, a GND input and a variable command output. The user can adjust the command output by adjusting the potentiometer with the wiper connected to the command input and the other two potentiometer connections attached to the control connector Pin 10 and control connector Pin 9 pins.
In torque mode, care must be taken by the user not to exceed the 0-4 volt range of the variable command input (Pin 2). Voltages outside this range could cause permanent damage to the control.
PWM (Pin 3) The PWM input can be used in Open Loop Speed and Closed Loop Speed Operating Modes. The PWM input operates in PWM Control method, where the PWM command is from 0 to 100%; 0% being no current applied to the windings and 100% full current applied to the windings. The frequency of the PWM signal in the PWM control method operates between 15 kHz and 25 kHz.

18 Nidec Motor Company
Direction (Pin 6) Direction outputs are generated from an internal controller by the three hall effect sensors. When the motor is rotating clockwise from the lead end, the direction output will be considered a low level (GND). When rotation is counter-clockwise from the lead end, the direction output will give a high level (5 Vdc). The GreenDriveTM can be used in conjunction with the Tachometer output (Pin 1). The figure below displays additional information about the direction and tachometer output.
FIGURE 4 – TACHOMETER AND DIRECTION INDICATION OUTPUTS
PWM & Direction (Pin 7) The PWM & Direction input can be used in Open Loop Speed and Closed Loop Speed Operating Modes. The PWM & Direction input operates in PWM & Direction Control Method where 0% duty cycle maximum command in the counterclockwise direction (viewed from the lead end), 50% duty cycle minimum command (0 input), 100% duty cycle maximum command in the clockwise direction (viewed from the lead end). The frequency of the PWM signal in the PWM & Direction control method operates at 2.5kHz.
Enable (Pin 8) The Enable input is used in all control methods and operating modes. A low level (0 Vdc) on the Enable pin enables the control to start the selected Control Type. A high level (+5 Vdc) on the Enable input causes the GreenDriveTM to stop controlling the motor, thus allowing the motor to coast. This line has an internal 2.15k pull up resistor. The 2.15k pull up resistor requires the pin to be driven by a circuit capable of sourcing at least 2.33 mA.

GND (Pin 9) The GND pin (Pin 9) is the return path for + 5 Vdc (Pin 10) input/output pin. It is also common connection for External, Analog or PWM Control Methods. Pin 9 (Gnd), is common to the (Gnd) terminal of the power supply connector. Use isolated input signals as required to avoid ground loop issues.
+5 Vdc (Pin 10) (Input)
In this section, pin 10 is described as an externally supplied input. If you selected the internally generated output, see the section below.
Voltage Input Range: 4.75 to 5.25 Vdc
Current Input: power supply must provide a minimum of 56 mA The +5 Vdc input is externally supplied by the end user depending on the GreenDriveTM option selected. The +5 Vdc input provides power for internal electronics. The user supplied +5 Vdc input is critical to the performance of the motor control. Care and attention must be taken not to deviate away from voltage specifications to prevent potential harm to the motor control system.

20 Nidec Motor Company
PWM & DIRECTION PWM & Direction - Pin 7 Enable – Pin 8
The PWM & Direction mode accepts a PWM signal on the Direction input pin (Pin 7) on the control connector to control speed and direction. PWM & Direction permits the user to vary input command and direction with change in duty cycle input. The PWM signal should be an active high PWM signal at 25 kHz to the PWM input pin. A 0% duty cycle input indicates maximum command in the counterclockwise direction when viewing the motor from the lead end. A 50% duty cycle input indicates minimum command. A 100% duty cycle input indicates maximum command in the clockwise direction when viewing the motor from the lead end. A high level on the Enable pin enables the drive.
